          OKAY HI YES HELLO I’M BACK ✨
          
          Pre-Board 2 is FINALLY over and I have returned from academic jail 
          My brain is half-fried, my sleep schedule is nonexistent, but I’m FREE and that’s all that matters 
          
          Thank you for waiting and not giving up on me while I disappeared to fight exams and bad question papers 
          I genuinely missed writing and yelling in the comments with you all 
          
          Updates will start again (slowly… gently… with love) as I recover from the trauma ✍️
          But yes. Author is back. Chaos resumes.
          
          — me, freshly released from school suffering 

Hey, I’m really sorry if I’m totally off the mark here...  I’m not sure if you’re accepting reading requests right now, but it would be so awesome if you gave my book a chance. ✨
          
          If you like it (or if it makes you feel some type of way), go ahead and hit that like button! And seriously—don’t forget to share your thoughts in the comments. I LIVE for those opinions. They matter more than you know! 
          
          Thanks a ton for your time, and I apologize for dropping by like an unexpected plot twist!

OKAY EVERYONE SIT DOWN, I HAVE TRAGIC NEWS 
          
          Your clown author is going on hiatus again.
          WHY?
          Because **Pre-Board 2** has entered the chat like a villain with background music 
          
          Apparently one round of academic torture wasn’t enough, so school decided to drop *another* set of exams just to finish whatever was left of my brain cells 
          
          So yeah… I won’t be able to update regularly for a while because I will be:
          – crying over maths again (Part 2: Revenge of the formulas) ➗
          – arguing with science like it owes me money 
          – pretending SST is interesting 
          – and drinking chai like it’s oxygen ☕
          
          I’ll TRY to sneak in updates if I get a tiny break from studying/crying/eating stress snacks, but mostly I’ll be held hostage by textbooks and teachers who think we’re writing UPSC 
          
          PLEASE don’t abandon me or start bullying my comment section—just send brain cells, luck, and maybe a time machine so I can skip to summer vacation 
          
          I’ll be back after Pre-Board 2 like a defeated champion who still wants to write chaotic chapters ✍️
          
          — your exhausted Class 10 student, mentally retiring at age 16 

 ### ✨ THANK YOU FOR 100+ READS, YOU BEAUTIFUL MENACES ✨
          
          HELLO MY LOVELY DRAMA-LOVING GREMLINS 
          We actually did it.
          WE. HIT. **100+ READS.**
          
          I was peacefully sipping water, minding my business like a calm protagonist—
          AND THEN BOOM 
          **You all ambushed me with love.**
          
          Aurora dropped her phone.
          Jorden Moretti raised an eyebrow.
          Nick’s ghost probably said “bro fr?”
          And Mrs. Moretti…I fear she might try to steal the milestone too 
          
          Seriously—
          THANK YOU FOR READING THIS CHAOTIC SOAP OPERA OF PAIN, PLOT TWISTS, MAFIA MEN, SASS, AND TRAUMA.
          Your support makes me more emotional than Jorden pretending he doesn’t care but secretly caring. ✨
          
          To celebrate:
          
          * Aurora will NOT be slapped today. 
          * Jorden will behave for 5 seconds (max).
          * Lily will ignore fewer calls… maybe.
          * Mrs. Moretti gets ZERO screen time.
          
          You guys make this journey wild, dramatic, and absolutely hilarious.
          THANK YOU FOR 100+ READS 
          Let’s make it 200 before Jorden loses his last brain cell 
          
          **Love you all. Stay chaotic. Stay dramatic. Stay hydrated.**
          ✨

HELLOOOO CHAOTIC PEOPLE, GUESS WHO’S BACK 
          
          Yes. Me. The missing author.
          The ghost.
          The legend who disappeared because of **pre-boards** and reappeared only after emotionally wrestling with every subject 
          
          I have finally escaped the torture chamber known as *Class 10 exam season*.
          My brain is fried, my soul left my body during maths, and I’m 90% sure I wrote nonsense in one of the papers… BUT I SURVIVED 
          
          So anyway—HI I’M BACK.
          Fully alive? No.
          Functioning? Also no.
          Ready to update again? ABSOLUTELY YES ✍️
          
          Thank you for not forgetting me (I hope… better say yes ).
          Now that I’m free, I’ll be posting again, screaming in the drafts, causing chaos, and pretending I wasn’t having nightly breakdowns over SST 
          
          Updates are coming.
          Energy is not.
          But we move 
          
          — your resurrected Class 10 warrior, reporting back after surviving academic warfare ️

          OKAY LISTEN UP MY CHAOTIC CHILDREN 
          
          I have tragic news.
          Painful news.
          HORROR MOVIE LEVEL NEWS.
          
          **My Class 10 pre-boards are starting.**
          Yes. PRE. BOARDS. Those mini boards that pretend they’re not serious but still ruin your life 
          
          Which means…
          I won’t be able to update regularly for a bit because my textbooks have kidnapped me and my teachers are suddenly acting like I’m training for the IAS exams 
          
          I’ll still TRY to post whenever I get a tiny moment of freedom, but mostly I’ll be:
          – crying over math 
          – fighting with science like it insulted my family 
          – pretending I “totally studied this chapter”
          – and drinking unhealthy amounts of chai/coffee ☕
          
          So yeah… your author is currently drowning in syllabus and trauma.
          BUT DON’T WORRY, I WILL RETURN AFTER PRE-BOARDS LIKE A PHOENIX RISING FROM THE ASHES (and from question papers I probably didn’t attempt fully ).
          
          Till then, pls miss me, send me brain cells, and don’t abandon my stories 
          Love you all, be chaotic for me.
          
          — your stressed Class 10 author who wants to disappear into vacation already

          I’m literally giggling, kicking my feet, and hiding under a blanket like **Seungmin avoiding eye contact after Felix smirks** 
          
          Thank you SO MUCH for loving this messy family, jealous Felix, soft Seungmin, and the parents who need therapy but instead choose drama 
          
          Y’ALL REALLY SAID:
          “YES. I WANT MORE CHAOS. FEED ME.”
          
          And guess what??
          I WILL.

          Thank you for supporting my story, my delulu brain,

          HEY HEY HEY GUESS WHO’S BACK 
          
          Yes. Me. The disaster author who went on “a short hiatus” and disappeared like a side character in episode 2 
          Diwali vacations are officially over and somehow I survived—barely. My ears are still ringing from crackers, my body is 70% sugar from all the sweets, and my soul has seen things (like aunties asking about my future ).
          
          Anyway, I’M BACK.
          No more family chaos, no more laddoo overdose, just me, my laptop, and all the stories I’ve been itching to update ✍️
          
          I missed you guys fr  Thanks for waiting (and not replacing me… I hope ). Updates will start rolling again soon—once I convince my brain to function after all that festive chaos ⚡
          
          So yeah. Author back. Chaos incoming. Let’s go

          ✨ CHAOTIC ANNOUNCEMENT TIME ✨
          
          HELLO MY LOVELY MENACES 
          
          So… I have tragic yet sparkly news  I’m going *out of town for Diwali vacations!*  Which means… yes… I’ll be on a **one-week hiatus** 
          
          Before anyone panics—NO, I haven’t been kidnapped by exams again  This time it’s family, sweets, noise, and me trying to survive relatives asking *“beta, what are you doing with your life?”* 
          
          I’ll be away for a week, probably stuffing myself with ladoos, dodging crackers like it’s an action movie ‍♀️, and pretending to socialize instead of writing like a goblin in a cave ‍♀️✍️
          
          BUT FEAR NOT! I’ll be back after Diwali, glowing brighter than the diyas (and maybe 5kg heavier from all the sweets ).
          Once I return, updates will rain down again like Diwali fireworks—chaotic, loud, and slightly dangerous. 
          
          Till then, don’t miss me too much (jk, miss me a lot). Be safe, don’t blow up your fingers, and have a super fun, sparkly Diwali 
          
          – [quinn ashford], currently running away from responsibility and crackers

           ATTENTION MY GREMLINS 
          
          GUESS WHO JUST ESCAPED ACADEMIC PRISON?? ✨✨
          That’s right—it’s me, your chaotic author who survived midterms with only *half* a brain cell left . Exams tried to murder me, the notes tried to drown me, and the caffeine tried to replace my blood with coffee ☕… BUT I WON. I AM FREE.
          
          So now I’m back to cause absolute *literary chaos* once again . Expect unhinged updates, questionable plot twists, and me screaming into the void at 3am while typing “one more chapter.”
          
          I know I disappeared like a K-drama lead going off to war , but THANK YOU for waiting, crying, and maybe threatening me in my absence (I felt the psychic energy of your side-eyes ). You are all MENACES and I love you.
          
           New chapters are loading… slowly… like my WiFi during a thunderstorm ️. But THEY’RE COMING. Be ready to eat good.
          
          Did you miss me?? Or were you cheating on me with other stories  (don’t lie, I’ll know).
          
          Anyway, exams are done. I’m alive. We’re back in business. LET THE CHAOS CONTINUE
